23 CHASE SEXTON 3RD (4-4-2) 250SX EAST
Chase Sexton has shown great speed all season so far in the 250SX East Champi-
onship, and he qualified first in Detroit, but he made costly mistakes in the first two
main events, which cost him a chance at a better finish. "The first two races, I got
myself where I needed to be and made two mistakes that cost me, I think, to be in
any sort of contention," Sexton said. "But the third race, I just told myself I've got to
go out there and try to win because I was a little bit back on points. I felt really good
again today, but maybe felt a little flat during the night show. But I'm looking forward
to next weekend for the East/West Shootout."
26 ALEX MARTIN 6TH (10-3-6) 250SX EAST
Alex Martin (JGRMX/Yoshimura Suzuki) feels as though he rode better than his
results would suggest. "I was happy with my riding in Detroit," Martin said. "I quali-
fied third fastest in practice, which is something I haven't done for a few years
in supercross. I had a great jump in the first main, but I got pushed off the track
on the start. I was only able to get back to 10th place. I was very happy with my
third-place finish in the second main. It was the best I have ridden in a supercross
race in a long time. The third main event I pretty much finished where I started. My
consistency on the starts is something we will work on this week."
Jordon Smith (28)
and Chase Sexton
(23) battled for
second place in
the 250SX class.
